In the last warm-up match of 2023, the national football team lost 0-2 to the Oman team, which undoubtedly poured cold water on the fans. The game laid bare the gravity of our country's football woes and made us even more acutely aware of the need for radical change.
The performance of the national football team in this game can be described as extremely embarrassing. Oman's excellent combination and agile movement put a lot of pressure on our squad. Despite the hard work of our internationals, they clearly lacked the chemistry and overall quality to form an effective attacking threat when it mattered most. Instead, Oman took advantage of the holes in our defence to seal the game early with two brilliant goals.
Behind this defeat are many problems in the development of football in our country. The lack of long-term planning and scientific management in our youth training system has led to obvious deficiencies in the technical, physical and psychological qualities of young players. At the club level, we are also facing operational and management challenges, which prevent many excellent players from being fully trained and improved.
To change this, we need to start on all fronts. First of all, it is necessary to establish a scientific and perfect youth training system, pay attention to the basic training of children, and cultivate their skills and awareness. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the training of coaches and improve their professionalism and guidance level. Only in this way can we send more good players to the national team.
Secondly, at the club level, there is a need to improve the operation and management of the club. Strengthen the supervision of clubs to ensure that they provide a good training environment and development space for players. In addition, close cooperation between clubs and national teams should also be encouraged to jointly develop more players of international standard.
In addition to internal reforms, we also need to focus on international exchange and academic Xi. Learn from the successful experience of other countries and Xi learn from their advanced models and management methods in football development. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the participation and organization of international competitions and improve the competition level and international reputation of continental football.
In short, this fiasco is a lesson that cannot be ignored in the development of football in our country. We need to face up to the problem and have the courage to change. It is only through all-round reform and efforts that we can re-emerge and occupy a place in international football. Let's work hard for the future of national football together!
